Danny Dyer’s Baking Woes: A Behind-the-Scenes Look at The Great Celebrity Bake Off

Danny Dyer, known for his tough-guy persona, recently joined The Great Celebrity Bake Off alongside Yinka Bokinni, Rhod Gilbert, and Leigh Francis. The show, raising awareness for Stand Up To Cancer, had its fair share of behind-the-scenes drama.

Yinka Bokinni, a Radio 1 presenter, shared insights with Metro.co.uk prior to the episode. According to Yinka, Danny faced a challenging moment during the showstopper challenge when crafting a cake of himself after a personal DIY fail.

The mishap led to a potential breakdown for Danny, who struggled with getting the figure of himself intact in his closet cake design. Despite this setback, Yinka praised Danny’s surprising baking skills, contrary to her initial expectations.

Yinka, who bonded with the contestants, including Rhod, Leigh, and Danny, revealed that they all shared a camaraderie due to their larger-than-life personalities. Danny’s endearing habit of calling everyone ‘baby’ created a comfortable environment on set.

During her time on the show, Yinka enjoyed the warm camaraderie with presenters Allison Hammond and judges Dame Prue Leith and Paul Hollywood. She admitted feeling nervous around Paul, known for his formidable reputation in the baking world.

Despite the fun, Yinka declared that her baking skills would remain in the tent, as she expressed a preference for cooking rice over baking. The Great Celebrity Bake Off For SU2C continues its entertaining run on Channel 4, offering viewers a peek into the baking adventures of celebrities for a worthy cause.
